iTunes Store account

I created an appletv account to watch movies on my vizio tv, signed in, got codes, now it says I must create an iTunes store account! Do I have to download a separate app for that?

You might need to sign into iTunes from another device.


For example iTunes on a windows pc.


I see this list also includes apple TV now, but it may be that you arpple TV does not support creating an iTunes store account, if you have tried to sign in as it says.
